Aeroflow breast pumps

Can anyone recommend a double electric hands-free breast pump through Aeroflow please.
There are so many, I would prefer recommended ones.

Spectra S1!!!

I was originally looking at the handsfree ones like the Momcozy M5 or the madela swing maxi hands free.

Spectra S1 tops all pumps. It's rechargeable but not wearable. Baby Buddha would be my next favorite.
The wearables I like are the Willow Go. I just finished breastfeeding/pumping for my 19 month old. I got the Momcozy M9 (wearables) to try for this pregnancy since one of my Willows broke, and I already have a few Spectras.
I wouldn't recommend beginning pumping with a wearable. It's important to establish a good supply first.
Btw, I make my Spectra "hands-free" by using cups and carrying it in a shoulder bag. 😅 Works like a charm.

Thank you. I was looking at the Baby Bhudda one as well.
I'll look into that one and the spectra.

I would also shop around sites I did 1naturalway this pregnancy because Aeroflow has limited pumps! I had more options on there and also bump box

Spectra S1

I used the momcozy s12 hands free when I needed to move around, which was great for me! But I think this time around I want to try the Elvie pump.

I love the Spectra gold and the S1. I had the S2 but its not portable.

Wearbles I liked legendairy milks silicone cups with the baby buddha. I usually used this when I was driving after my first kid.

The Elvie stride is HORRIBLE! Don't waste your time.

Also its actually recommended to use a non-wearable pump to establish milk supply for the first 8-12 weeks if you're exclusively pumping. The wearables aren't strong enough to fully empty your breasts and can lead to a lower supply. I exclusively pumped for both of my babies. First for 13 months and second for 7.5 months. Exclusively_pumping and Aloha_nutrition on IG have great information on pumping and breastfeeding:)

Seems like the spectra is the popular choice here.

My husband and I are looking at this product:

Great reviews and able to be portable when needed from what I’ve read so far. Has anyone used this specific product? It looks like it’s a S1 style.

That looks good.
I think I've resided to getting an electric pump rather than a hands-free one for my 1st one.

The one you're looking at isn't covered on my insurance.

I have time yet to figure it out.

Honestly you can’t beat the spectra. I ended up returning two momcozy wearables as I thought they were broken they were so weak compared to the spectra. I’ve had other wearable ones and they just don’t compare in strength, you’ll spend double the time pumping.
I travel with my spectra still and it’s really not that much more to pack in amongst all the things you need to bring. You can get a bra to make it hands free and the S1 is portable xx

When does it get better?

I was crying on the phone with the perinatal mental health team today and the lovely lady, bless her, kept assuring me that it gets better. I kept telling her I hope so because people have been saying that since having my LO and it just feels like it keeps getting worse. She assured me it gets better....

Sleeping bag

8 week old in sleeping bag for first time as big enough! Do you feed your child in the night whilst in the sleeping bag or taken them out, feed then transfer back to sleeping bag before putting down?

Rant/WWYD

My sister (youngest, 24) has two kids, 4 & 1, and i (oldest, 30) just have my one who’s 6mo old right now, so i ask her for advice or call her to vent about things sometimes. Well im tired of her turning around and telling my other family members that I’m “losing my sh*t.” Literally have not lost my sh*t nor have i ever freaked out to her about my baby, i just call her to talk and tell her what stage my baby is in or talk through how im feeling, but she chooses to tell people that im like a complete nutcase or something which worries me that my family is going to start being judgmental about me as a mother or looking at me funny like I’m some fragile ticking time bomb.

What would you do in this situation? I’m already pretty much decided that I’ll stop telling her anything about my struggles, but I’m almost at the point where i feel like it should be confronted because she, of all people, should understand what I’m going through.

Not drinking

I’m going crazy. Baby born at 2.26kg. Slow to put on weight. This last week hasn’t put on any. Been trying to feed him at night and he’s not interested at all. Fast asleep. During day he will have 5 minute gulps and that’s it. He don’t cry for milk. I’ve got to keep offering to him. I try to offer it every hour but I don’t know what I’m doing. HV said nutrition comes after 5 minutes so I should pump first and then give him. I find it so hard. I tried to pump one boob nothing came. The other abit came. Tried giving him express he’s not interested in that too. Sometimes he will go for a longer a feed but not long at all. He’s 4 months and is currently 5.46kg. I have no family or friend support here and wish I had a cook, cleaner and nanny to help with everything so I can concentrate on the little one. I don’t know what’s wrong with him but I’m loosing it. It doesn’t help that my also stressed generally about my relationship and life circumstances. Any advice that will work. Any comfort you can give. I’m fed up. Is this regression - not feeding. He’s fast fast asleep. I’ve been trying to push the nipple in but that mouth is closed shut. I took some clothes off. Changed his nappy but he’s still asleep. Please help

Leaky nappy help

What nappies are you using to stop leaks?? We use pampers ultra dry size 5, and for the past few nights he has lashed through and we’ve had to completely change him during the night. Last night he leashed through twice!! He sleeps on his front and stays leaks through at the top of his leg where the tabs connect. Didn’t know whether to size up, he has a bit of a belly on him but he’s smack in middle of weight guidance so shouldn’t need too

My little one is struggling with sleep

Hey! I'm in need of some advice please girls! My little boy is 20 months turns 21 months in 2 half weeks. He use to sleep through the night now he is waking up every single night in the early morning, I've had to transition him to a toodler bed as he kept climbing out his cot.
